Career Choices offers teachers unique and engaging ways of allowing students to explore career interests and opportunities while concurrently meeting life skills required of all students and productive workers. I commend these materials for use in high schools and/or community colleges...I particularly like that the curriculum is grounded in a specific academic discipline and that it is competency-based.
